Most of the individuals want to start their own business but they are afraid of one thing " WHAT WILL PEOPLE SAY".
To be honest I am also a little afraid of criticism, that is, what people I know will say, because of this I am also afraid of starting a business. For this reason I thought that I would start a small online business so that my identity will be hidden. Even if I fail in that I will not have to be humiliated socially. I do not know whether I will do the right thing or the wrong thing, On the other hand those who have a job, have a fixed amount of salary that gives them security to manage their family. But if they have to leave their job and go into business, then they have to face pressure if their family is behind them, So in this case I would say that if you can do a small business without leaving your job. This reduces the risk a lot.
I don't know why people would be even be bothered about what other people would think to build themselves like to me it's so unreasonable. Everyone is living their lives, building themselves doing one thing or another and then you will be thinking of what others will think to build yourself, why exactly.
Anyone that Is afraid of criticism will never grow because critics are what makes you a better person. Instead of feeling discouraged, you should be using it as a motivation to grow. I am never afraid of criticism, what people think doesn't concern me at all.
Having a job and running a business at the same time is good but some businesses require more of your time and can be difficult to run both at the same time. Maybe it's why some people quit their jobs to start up a business.
